The Rocking Chair
In this still,
I sit upon a quiet throne
Of oaken beams and brittle bark –
So gently it is swaying
Discordant with the passing days,
All memories are hung.
Silence falls,
I breathe an icy reverie,
Such shadows poised in reverence.
The rocking chair is bursting,
No spring or switch to turn about,
And with the dawn I wake.
- Carolyn Quick (2016)

The rocking chair is bursting,
No spring or switch to turn about,
And with the dawn I wake.
